摘要:
Described are osteogenic implants that include a first implant material covered at least in part by a second implant material carrying an osteogenic protein such as a bone morphogenic protein. The first implant material can comprise a mineral and provide an inner scaffolding portion for supporting bone ingrowth, and the second implant material can comprise a collagen or other sponge carrier covering the first implant material and having a liquid osteogenic protein formulation imbibed therein. Related implant materials and methods of preparation and use constitute additional aspects of the invention.

摘要:
Methods of expressing LIM mineralization protein in mammalian cells are described. Methods of expressing LIM mineralization protein and assessing glycosylation of the LIM mineralization protein in prokaryotic and non-mammalian eukaryotic cells are also described. The methods involve transfecting the cells with an isolated nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a LIM mineralization protein. Transfection may be accomplished in vitro, ex vivo or in vivo by direct injection of virus or naked DNA, or by a nonviral vector such as a plasmid.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the methods and compositions for the treatment of subjects having compromised bone conditions. Specifically, the invention relates to combinatorial therapeutic strategies including small molecules and peptide mimics of LIM mineralization proteins, particularly LMP-1, to overcome the dose-related translational barriers for BMP-2 therapeutics.
摘要:
A bone graft substitute includes a porous matrix at least partially covered by a reinforcing outer layer. The porous matrix may be a collagen-ceramic composite, and the reinforcing outer layer may be formed from highly cross-linked collagen. The implant may also include one or more reinforcement ribs, which may be made from calcium phosphate or dense collagen. In addition, the bone graft substitute preferably includes an effective amount of a bioactive agent, such as BMP-2, rhBMP-2, or functional fragments thereof. The bioactive agent is preferably disposed within the porous matrix.
